Bilateral and Multilateral Cooperation

• Bilateral cooperation– Cater to country‐specific needs according to the

policy development cycle

• Multilateral cooperation

– Sharing best practice

– Harmonization among countries

Super‐Efficient Equipment and Appliance Deployment (SEAD)

SEAD is an international market transformation initiative under the Clean Energy Ministerial (CEM) and the International Partnership for Energy Efficiency Cooperation (IPEEC).

Participating Countries: Australia, Brazil, Canada, EU, France, Germany, India, Japan, Korea, Mexico, Russia, South Africa, Sweden, UAE, UK, US

Partners work together in voluntary activities to: “raise the efficiency ceiling” by pulling super-efficient appliances and equipment into the market through cooperation on measures like incentives, procurement, awards, and R&D investments; “raise the efficiency floor” by working together to bolster national or regional policies like minimum efficiency standards; “strengthen the foundations” of efficiency programs by coordinating technical work to support S&L activities.

SEAD Activities

http://www.superefficient.org/

1. Cross-cutting Technical Analysis:

Bottom-up Energy Analysis System (BUENAS) tool

Web Portal (www.superefficient.org)

Perform global, product-specific technical analysis as a foundation for all other SEAD activities (Televisions, Ceiling Fans, Room Air Conditioners, Domestic Refrigeration)

2. Awards: 2012 awards for flat-panel televisions. Future award categories under consideration (Computer Monitors, Electric Motors)

3. Standards & Labels Collaboration:

Product collaborations for peer-to-peer information sharing: Commercial Refrigeration, Computers, Distribution Transformers,

Motors, Network Standby, Solid State Lighting, Televisions

4. Procurement: Best practice guidelines for procurement program design

5. Incentives: Through the Efficient Product Promotion Collaborative, gather and share information regarding the design of effective programs and marketing strategies to promote both efficient and super-efficient products to consumers worldwide.

IEA‐Efficient Electrical End‐Use Equipment (IEA‐4E) http://www.iea‐4e.org/

IEA-4E's objective is to promote adoption of government policies to encourage the use of efficient electrical end-use equipment.

Participating Countries: Australia, Austria, Canada, Denmark, EU (observer), France, Japan,

Korea, Netherlands, Sweden, Switzerland, UK, US

The 4E provides a forum for countries and other stakeholders to:

Share expertise and develop their understanding of end-use equipment and policies; and

Facilitate coordination of international approaches in the area of efficient end-use equipment.


IEA 4E: Activities (called “Annexes”)1. Motor Systems Annex: works on spreading good practice, new improved

technology and positive policy experiences; promoting high efficiency motors (IE3 Level) globally. It also manages “Motor Summit“ every year

2. Standby Power Annex: Develops methodologies to assist in the collection and analysis of standby power data to facilitate international comparisons; compile measured data on standby power consumption; develop practical policy approaches that may enable effective management of standby power.

3. Solid State Lighting Annex•

Develop SSL Quality Assurance - work to enhance confidence in the SSL technology

•

Harmonize SSL Performance Testing

•

Standards and Accreditation - develop a structure for world-wide interim reliability of SSL testing labs' performance data

4. Mapping & Benchmarking Annex

A project designed to understand differences in product performance and energy consumption between countries/regions.

Mapping: an overview of the energy efficiency performance in several countries and/or regional areas, and a brief summary of the main policy measures

Benchmarking: compare average and best performance of products put on the market in different countries and/or regional areas

Energy Efficiency in ASEAN http://aseanenergy.org/index.php/acebodies/eec‐ssn

• Energy Efficiency and Conservation Sub‐sector Network (EE&C SSN)

has the ownership of Energy Efficiency and Conservation

activities in ASEAN.

• ASEAN has set a goal to

reduce Energy Intensity of 8% by 2015 (over 2005), which is currently being reviewed;

• Program initiated in 2010 under the steering of the ASEAN EE&C SSN:

– Study on estimate of EE related to increase in MEPS for AC and refrigerators in ASEAN conducted

– Critical needs identified: harmonization of standards for testing methods and MEPS

– Strategic framework for harmonization of EE standards for household appliances developed and approved by EEC‐SSN

– ACs selected as priority

• Participating Countries: ASEAN member countries (Brunei, Cambodia, Indonesia, Laos, Malaysia, Myanmar, Philippines,

Singapore, Thailand, Vietnam)


ASEAN: ActivitiesAPEC-ASEAN Harmonization of Energy Efficiency Standards for Air Conditioners project (funded by APEC)

DeliverablesPreparation of recommendations for an ASEAN harmonized standard for testing methods

Preparation of recommendations on the way forward for an APEC- wide harmonization of standards for testing methods for ACs

Harmonize standards for testing methods for air conditioners

among ASEAN members and develop a roadmap

for the harmonization at APEC level based on lessons learned.

Phase 1 (2012‐2013)

Harmonize EE standards in ASEAN members throughMEPS and HEPS policiesPhase 2

Build capacity of testing laboratories/increase consumer awareness.Phase 3

APEC Activities

The APEC Expert Group on Energy Efficiency and Conservation (EGEE&C) promotes energy conservation and the application of energy efficiency practices and technologies in the APEC region.

1. ESIS (Energy Standard Information System)• APEC ESIS provides up-to-date information about energy efficiency

standards and labelling that apply to products in the APEC region.• Global S&L Database (36 economies and two regional associations

(APEC and SEAD), covers 17 product categories)


APEC Activities2. CAST （Collaborative Assessment of Standard and Testing) Initiative

Objectives:

Promotes harmonized test procedures

Support development of aligned energy efficiency standards and labels in APEC economies

SEAD to fund one or more projects each year over a 5 year period to advance S&L development in APEC economies

Current projects:

Study on harmonization of energy efficiency standards and labeling programs for motors (APEC Economy Sponsor: China)

Evaluation and initial draft of harmonized test methods and level definitions for heat pump water heaters (APEC Economy Sponsor: Australia)

Issues of Multilateral S&L Cooperation• Overlap in appliance and geographical

coverage – Possible duplication of efforts, but some

coordination already taking place

• Participation of major energy consuming countries

– Participation widening as observers

• Bridging the gap between words and practice– Generating and sharing information on best

practices and recommending ways for harmonization are good results. But they need to

be implemented to have a real impact. How can words be brought into practice?
